About Zeree

Zeree Adams is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California with 17 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, bipolar disorder, depression, and life transitions. Zeree frames clients as the experts on their own stories and draws on their strengths during sessions.

In meetings she focuses on clear, practical steps people can use between appointments. She uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help with mood regulation and everyday coping. Mindfulness practices are offered to build present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity.

Zeree also brings Internal Family Systems ideas into conversations about how early family roles and attachment patterns still affect behavior today. That perspective helps when people want to understand repeating relationship patterns or decisions rooted in earlier family dynamics. She will talk through how those patterns show up now and what small changes might feel doable.

Sessions tend to be straightforward and action-oriented, with time spent reviewing what worked, what did not, and what to try next. She encourages regular check-ins on mood and coping skills so adjustments can be made as needed. The goal is steady progress on concrete problems rather than lengthy explanation.

People who look for direct, skills-based work to manage anxiety, stabilize mood, or change long-standing patterns often find this approach useful. Zeree asks new clients to complete a short questionnaire before the first meeting to help set immediate goals and priorities.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Zeree uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and to build practical behavior changes that reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. CBT focuses on testing thoughts and trying new actions to change day-to-day mood and functioning.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. DBT techniques are useful when strong emotions make it hard to follow through on goals or to manage interpersonal conflict.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will review current concerns, past patterns, and personal preferences, then suggest which methods to try first. Clients and therapist check progress and adjust methods over time based on what helps most.

Confirm the exact session formats available before booking, since formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, enable shorter check-ins when needed, or reduce travel time. The therapist will discuss scheduling, session length, and any practical details during the intake so sessions can be arranged to fit everyday life.
